No one is going to notice any construction problems with all that cute stitchery. It looks gorgeous.Valspierssewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10052294048481393185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7289741603782201848.post-86355244664781486162013-03-25T19:01:00.016+10:002013-03-25T19:01:00.016+10:00Susan, I think it looks really nice.

Lovely blue. I used a bit thicker linen too and it was a bit squeezy, but I didnt use the parlan, just whisperweft. I would stick to quilting cotton if I made another. Anyway project done, and on to the next month. Have fun at the Craft Show.Marilynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08359804514395818205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7289741603782201848.post-17198376740369578932013-03-21T09:48:09.726+10:002013-03-21T09:48:09.726+10:00i agree i think it looks great also and i also lov...i agree i think it looks great also and i also love it in the blue,oh lucky you, have fun at the craft show.xxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7289741603782201848.post-38929809509992362492013-03-21T08:35:33.710+10:002013-03-21T08:35:33.710+10:00Ah but it looks great.... you must have hidden thi...Ah but it looks great.... you must have hidden things well... but you did seem to make it hard on yourself!!!
